Aguinaldo, who attends the same university as Villanueva and is like him 19, said it's typical of her boyfriend to do something lighthearted and fun.

"I burst out laughing as soon as he pulled out the bouquet of nuggets," she told ABC News. "It was something so typical of him to do! ...I felt incredibly grateful, though. I really appreciate the time and effort he put into creating it."

Valentine's Day is fast approaching, but Aguinaldo said she and her boyfriend haven't made any plans "since we've got class."

Rico Villanueva, 19, gave his girlfriend Annika Aguinaldo, 19, a bouquet of chicken nuggets because she hates flowers

"We made plans to study together and grab an inexpensive bite to eat near school," the college student continued. "However, he told me that he has been planning something special for the weekend following Valentine's Day, so I'll have to wait and see what's going to happen then."

Aguinaldo added, "All I'm hoping for is some time to spend with him, no matter what we do."

And in case you're wondering, Aguinaldo said she did share her nuggets with Villanueva and "our friend, Eia, who took the photos."
